This is no joke. Cars were honking their horns and flashing their lights. I pulled over and somebody said, "your awning is falling apart and flying all over the road"! I climbed on the roof and the roof radius was out of the flashing. All of the Styrofoam backing had come out and that is what was flying all over the road. I had to re-order from Winnebago Parts @ $5.40 per 4' section. I ordered the products you prescribed and re-sealed the edges. My unit is a 2003 and clearly had NEVER been re-sealed as 100% of the sealer was gone. No Mineral Spirits required, just cleaned with alcohol. No scraping at all. I dodged a bullet on this one and in doing so found the source of a leak near the passenger seat. This week's job is the self-leveling sealer that you used.

I resigned myself to having the roof replaced. And then I found your video. I done the reseal and have 6000 miles on it, no problem. I just bought it used overall in fantastic condition only 36000 miles. No water damage anywhere so I never checked the roof closely. Thank you for your advice.

Thanks to this video I tackled the roof job over the last two days. I had this planned for the winter and had already purchased the Manus product to use. After seeing this, I went out and bought ProFlex. While the caulk on the coach(2014 Vista 35B) had not turned to powder, It looked like it might be starting. The job was not easy, taking the time to clean and get all the old stuff off was the toughest part. Oh, and climbing up and down the ladder. Wish I had kept a count on the number of times. One thing I think maybe needs to done in conjunction with this job is to paint the inside of the gutter. While mine are not rusted, they look like it could start. I would think this would be an easy and quick job using brush on paint and a foam brush. I keep my rig indoors, so I feel if you store outdoors this would be even more important.

I'm just vacuuming the foam down and gluing it to the wood It's been fun. It doesn't look to bad, I guess. There is not a heck of a lot of research on that one.

After watching this video I inspected my roof and sure enough the seals were bad. I used my multitool to clean the channel. You must use great care as the multitool would eat the fabric roof in a heartbeat. It was very fast and efficient allowing me to clean the channel with little effort. I found that if I used a cap from the Heng product to run down the channel after the first application, the Proflex would sink into the channel and fill it letting me apply a second coat and be done with it.

Thank you for your service for those who are unable to get up there. It seems that seal will lead not to roof problems because it allows water down below the roof line. You might still have an ok roof but walls rotted out. Amazing that they tuck it in and seal. This means that overlapping the exterior wall and fastening is either too expensive is too expensive to replace if ever needed, or both. The tucked roof, despite the required perfect seal, may allow for easier replacement due to other damage that is common.

Great refresher James. Appreciate it. Was looking at a beautiful Winnebago Tour DP at a local dealer for possible purchase and utilized the inspection process shared in your videos. I found the exact problem shared here, including the roof spider-cracking at the corner from an unknown overhead strike. When I shared these anomalies with the sales rep, he had no idea of the installation process Winnebago uses. I explained the issues as well as the solutions, stating whoever buys the coach ought to have full-disclosure if their shop chooses not to do so pre-sale. The coach sold about a week later, so I am thinking they chose not to address the problems. Won't be going back there to buy a coach

I just did this on the 2015 Brave I bought. I bought it aight unseen in Arizona, flew out and drove it 2200 miles home to Buffalo. The Manus Bond did turn to powder, but someone tried to fix it by using cheap white silicone. If it was just manus bond I would have had the transition cleaned out and re sealed in less than an hour (I’m an RV tech as well) but it took me nearly 3 hours to clean out all the silicone and re seal it. I debated using pro flex which I use on just about everything, but went with the Manus Bond for this application, it’s easier to remove in a few years when I have to do it again, and I would if I used pro flex too. As it tends to crack.

Just bought a used new to us 2015 Winnebago Brave 27B in excellent condition. After a long drive we made it to California. For the first time I noticed a small puddle of water on the dash. It was dripping down from the ceiling/front compartment area about an inch from the windshield. There was no rain at all. Note we have been through a couple of heavy rains and no leaks. When I looked on the roof after noticing the puddle there was a little puddle against the front cap seal where the AC appeared to drained to. Im thinking after a very bumpy 4 day cross country trip maybe the seal was compromised. Does this sound right to you? Is there anywhere else I should suspect? The side seals need to be resealed but the roof looks good otherwise. Really enjoy your channel.

James, I am in the process of purchasing a 2018 Minnie Winnie 25b. The roof will definitely need to be resealed bc I am going to be living in it most of the time. I wondered about a couple of things. You are suggesting to use Proflex to seal gaps on Winnebago roofs. I watched a different youtube guy just today that said never use Proflex on a Winnebago roof. He said it's fine to use on windows and doorframes, but bc there is usually silicone sealant on the roof of Winnebagos, that Proflex and silicone do not bond, and for that reason, he said to not use it on Winnebago roofs. Idk anything about it, and I honestly think you are more the expert here, so I just thought I'd ask since I am such a newbie and have to seal my new roof as soon as I get it! Second question. Do you ever seal an entire winnebago roof (as in my minnie winnie 25b) using Crazy Seal or RV-Armor or any products like that, that, once painted in a solid coat across the top, leave a solid rubber seal over the entire roof? I wanted to get your opinion on that as well. Thank you! I wish you were closer to the east coast! Ok I so have one more question. It's about the tape called Eternabond. Is that something I should line around anything on the rooftop before painting on Crazy Seal (I want to know the best method for DIYers please). TY!!

Just had my Winnie roof inspected and was told it was good but a friend spotted this issue while watching my ac drip 🤦♂️

Really enjoy your videos. We have a sunova and have had issues with the side sealing. I was wondering if I used butyl tape and filled with that if it would last longer or even work. Thanks for any thoughts you have on this.

Dear AZ Experts, I am the proud new owner of a 2005 Winnebago Journey 32T and I followed your advice and instruction on inspecting and maintaining the radius seal. It came out beautifully! But here's what I have other concerns. During my inspection I also noticed some stress cracks on or along the radius. My question is, How do I go about taking care of that? I've been doing some research and I've seen some folks use Flex Seal or Dicore Signature (silicone based) to basically paint their roofs. Is this process something you would recommend? And what product is best to tackle this issue? I appreciate any and all the help I can get! Sincerely, Nick

Jim I enjoyed the explanation of this issue. I just bought an 06 adventurer 35A now I know how to do this job with confidence. I'm curious why on the cap where you put the self leveling cauk I didn't see any on the radius it goes down on the curve. Is that gonna be OK and it won't leak? Just leave it dry? Ty again for your professionalism and making these videos. I liked and subscribed 😎

self leveling will just pour down over the edge on the radius and the geocel is used on the radius

What about putting EternaBond on all those seams once you have sealed them?

How long did it take you to complete both sides? I am going to be doing this very soon and need to figure out how much time to plan for the process.

Awesome video and much needed as mine looks just like one in the video. One Q? How long do I have between application of the Proflex and coming back and wiping off the excess? It must have been 1/2 hour or so even with the scaffolding?
